The  Clifton  is  beautifully  located  on  a  hill  facing 
tiie  American  Falls  and  overlooking  the  Horse- 
shoe Falls,  and  adjoins  Queen  Victoria  Parl<.  The 
Park  contains  a  wonderful  display  of  native  and 
exotic  trees,  shrubbery  and  flowers.  The  Clifton  is 
a  modern  semi-firepi.  .if,  first-class  hotel  with  225 
rooms  with  baths,  operated  under  the  direction  of 
the  United  Hotels  Company  of  America,  and  is  rec- 
ognized as  being  one  of  the  world's  famous  hotels. 
It  was  built  by  the  power  and  transportation  com- 
panies centering  at  Xiagara  Falls,  for  the  purpose  of 
affording  to  the  travelling  public  desiring  to  visit  the 
woi.^ers  of  Niagara,  a  safe,  comfortable,  and  luxu- 
riant place  of  temporary  abode.  The  cuisine  of  the 
hotel  has  become  famed  for  its  excellence,  and  the 
beauties  and  wonders  of  the  Falls,  the  Rapids,  and 
the  River  are  given  an  added  attraction  through  the 
facilities  afforded  by  The  Clifton. 

The  main  office  of  the  Canadian  Tours  is  located  in 
the  hotel  and  all  in- 
formation which  the 
tourist  will  require 
respecting  motor 
trips  in  Canada  will 
be  freely  given  and 
the  motorist  sup- 
plied, without  ex- 
pense, with  road 
books  and  maps, 
and  arrangements 
are  also  made,  with-

The  Falls  of  Xiagara  is  recognized  the  world 


Thk  amkkiian  ani>  Canadian  Falls 

over  as  the  grandest  natural  scenery  on  the  American 
Continent.  The  American  Falls  is  167  feet  high  and 
1,000  feet  wide,  and  the  Horseshoe  or  Canadian  Falls 
is  15fl  fe..'t  high  and  2,600  feet  wide.  The  estimated 
volume  of  water  flowing  over  the  Falls  is  about 
224,000  gallons  a  foot  per  second,  which,  when  con- 
verted into  kinetic  energy,  is  capable  of  producing 
upwards  of  5,000,000  horse  power.  In  the  year  1725 
the  waters  of  the  Falls  were  first  u-sed  for  power,  a 
saw  mill  being  built  to  saw  lumber  for  the  construc- 
tion of  Fort  Xiagara.  Sufficient  water  is  now  used 
to  develop  approximately  600,000  horse  power,  and 
additional  plans  contemplate  a  further  development 
of  about  500,000  horse  power,  but  even  with  the 
additional  water  taken  for  this  economic  purpose  no 
appreciable  loss  of  scenic  beauty  or  grandeur  will 
occur.  Even  the  River,  without  [he  Falls,  would  be 
reckoned  one  of  the  famous  rivers  of  the  world ;  but, 
with  the  enchanting  beauty  and  solemn  grandeur 
presented  by  the  Falls  and  Rapids,  no  Ameri- 
can or  Canadian  can  afford  to  not  fully  acquaint 
himself  with  the  history  of  this  wonderful  natural

phenomenon,  and  view  the  Falls,  the  Rapids,  and  the 
River  at  leisure.

Lewiston  Route,  and  one  through  Niagara  Falls 
Ontario,  via  Stamford  to  St.  David's  designated  the 
Stamford  Route.  From  St.  David's  the  route  is 
a  common  one.  The  Lewiston  route  is  de.scribed  as 
follows:

ing torrent  of  waters  dashing  against  the  huge  rocks,  and 
compressed  by  the  narrow  banks  of  the  Niagara  River 
presents  a  spectacle  of  beauty  and  grandeur  without  com- 
parison. Here  may  also  be  seen  from  an  unsurpassed 
position  the  famous  Whirlpool.
